    Hi there, I’ve set up OS X Server 10.3 to authenticate users from our University’s AD domain. This seems to be working fine.

    However I now want to begin restricting access to the various parts of my OS X Server via the different groups that use it.

    I’ve managed to add AD users into local groups successfully, but desite doing so, they don’t seem to receive the rights that the local groups have.

    I’m not sure what’s going on. Local users placed into those groups receive the correct access, it only seems to be a problem for AD users.

    Any ideas?

    Cheers,
    Mike

    I just created a local group in the local domain (ie where the admin user sits, etc) and then clicked the + button, waiting for about 2 mins while the incredibly slow and uncached list of AD users appeared after choosing the AD search path from the popup menu in the drawer, found the users I wanted and dragged them over.

    In recent news, I restarted the server for the 10.3.1 update. Now, it seems that the local group access rights are being correctly given to the AD users…but I’ve only tested with my account. I’ve added other users and asked them to verify their access, but it’s 1.45am here so I won’t know for a little while 🙂

    Cheers,
    mike
